Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"Sentimental Education; Or, The History of a Young Man. Volume 1" by Gustave Flaubert is a novel published in 1869. Set against the French Revolution of 1848, it follows Frédéric Moreau, a young man hopelessly infatuated with an older married woman. As he drifts through Parisian society, Frédéric oscillates between romantic obsessions, friendships, and failed ambitions. Flaubert paints an ironic portrait of restless youth, capturing a generation marked by passion without purpose and desire without direction—a cynical meditation on love, society, and the feelings of his time.
